Swiss Transparency Act: All Information on the Transparency Register

This article explains what information is required when reporting to the Swiss Transparency Register: from identity data on the beneficial owner to the nature and extent of control through to control chain disclosures in more complex structures. It covers special cases such as holdings through listed companies and situations where a beneficial owner cannot be identified, and maps the key obligations to the relevant provisions of the LETA and LETO. Deadlines, the logic behind change notifications and common misconceptions in practice are also addressed in accessible terms.
